I'm really trying to find a downside to this, but keep coming up empty.

Well, this looked better in real life. I think it was just too bright and it washed out the colors in the stone.

Oh well. My humble entry.

Heather, do you have any photo editing software? Was that taken with a camera that gives you a RAW file to work with? You'd probably be happier with the colours if you dropped the exposure by 0.3 or 0.7 stops, then pushed the contrast by maybe 10%. The bike will come out darker, maybe losing a little body detail, but the colours in the stone should come out.

*EDIT* I copied what you posted, did a quick 'curves' on it, then dropped the brightness by 10% and it looks pretty good. I could post it for ya, if you like
